Time to move on, glad we did Yes, the 17 years without playoffs was a very frustrating time in Buffalo. But Tyrod gave us a few exciting years at the end of that frustrating time and then helped lead us out of the darkness and into light, ending the longest playoff drought in sports. Taylor is no Franchise QB, but he's the best we had in Buffalo for 17+ years. So go get 'em in Cleveland Tyrod... hope you're more appreciated there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where was Tyrod in the first 3 quarters? He was being virtually 100% of the offense for those 3 quarters, just like he continued to be for the 4th quarter, gaining 190+ yards and passing for a TD behind an offensive line that couldn't block and passing to the likes of Deonte Thompson, Nick O'leary, Say Jones, Logan Thomas, and Jordan Matthews.

Yep... our weapons in 2017 absolutely sucked... and I thought our weapons in 2016 sucked... but damn, we had backup talent almost across the board to throw to. WRs and weapons in 2015 pretty good WRs and weapons in 2016 not so good, probably below average to awful at least half the year WRs and weapons in 2017 below average to awful the whole year What'd we say about Taylor regressing from 2015-2017... wait...

I'm not saying the team played great and he held them back. Just that when the QB needed to elevate, he didn't. He was same old mediocre Tyrod. His third quarters are the anti-Warriors. The Jets game was another mediocre showing from Tyrod in a long line of them. Sometimes our defense and other guys play well and we win. Sometimes they don't and we lose. Rarely does Tyrod play what I would consider "good," especially in 2017 Herein lies the 3 years of argument over Tyrod Taylor. Very few QBs in the NFL truly "elevate" their teams in the way you're describing. Brady, Brees, Rodgers and Big Ben are probably the only ones who do it with any consistency. Most NFL starting QBs need their NFL offensive teammates to be consistently playing to an NFL starting level. (And I'll disregard the negative connotations of the word "mediocre" you used for Taylor and accept it for it's literal meaning--that Taylor was a middle of the road QB, which is precisely what he was for 3 years) That wasn't what happened in 2017 for the Buffalo Bills, with the exception of Shady, of course. So OBD is taking the approach of swinging for the fences with Allen, hoping he turns into the Brady/Brees/Rodgers/Big Ben of tomorrow. It's a gamble, but while the risk is there, the reward is very high. That approach is the reason Tyrod is gone.

They were late season injury replacements who played almost no part in their team making the playoffs. Tarvaris is a better comparison because he was a starter and also Quarterbacked a team that many would say were 'lucky' to get in and got in primarily for reasons other than Quarterback play.

kota Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 (edited) Tyrod worked and tried hard for this team. I do not doubt. But unfortunately you need to make plays on Sundays. He had a few dazzlers over the years but offensive production was terrible. The Bills got to the playoffs due to the defense. When you hit the playoffs Offense counts and he dropped an egg against Jacksonville. At least our coaching staff understands this and have moved on.

Foxx Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) Gordon: Browns boast 'best receiving corps' in league Quote ... But what about the remodeled receiving corps on the winless Browns? Josh Gordon thinks his unit deserves more respect. Way more respect. "[The Browns] have the best receiving corps in the league, in my opinion, already, just based off of talent alone," Gordon told reporters during mandatory minicamp Tuesday. "So you put in the playbook and some guys that are hungry enough to go do it and hopefully you can go out there and show and prove that. That's just my opinion, but we're not short on talent at the wide receiver position at all." When pressed to respond to his teammate's confident assertion, new Browns wideout Jarvis Landrydoubled down, telling The Athletic, "He ain't lying." That's high praise from Gordon and Landry for a pass-catching crew that has yet to play a full 60 minutes together. ... this should be good. when the bullets begin to fly for reals and Tyrod gets his yips going, there is going to be something else flying about.
